Documentary reveals the perils of US administration's negligence, amnesty policies

For the past six years, the Obama Administration has invited and encouraged the wretched humanitarian crisis we now find on the Republic’s southern border. The president declared – in brazen violation of statutory and Constitutional law – that the government would no longer deport unaccompanied minor illegal immigrants. He also made clear that following this year’s midterm elections, he would take executive action to grant amnesty to millions of illegals.

The Border States of America takes viewers from the Rio Grande Valley to towns across America, telling the story of how criminal ‘coyotes’ and drug cartels are profiting from Obama’s policies, risking the lives of American citizens and putting new economic strains on our schools, hospitals and economy."The Border States of America" Trailer

This is why Tea Party Patriots (TPP) producedThe Border States of America.Hosted by Nick Searcy , star of FX’s hit series,"Justified," this one-hour documentary focuses attention on the border crisis in a way the mainstream media refuse to do. You won’t see a more important film this year, and like all of our great ideas, this one came from the grassroots.

Mark Hager, a college professor and North Carolina TPP State Coordinator, was all too aware of the border crisis before it briefly held the national media’s attention. Seeing an educational opportunity, Mark reached out to contacts he’d established in founding the American Security Coalition, a network of Southern border sheriffs and grassroots activists throughout the country, and urged TPP to make the documentary. With TPP support, The Border States of America was born.

TPP was thrilled and honored to have a conservative celebrity of Nick Searcy’s stature hosting The Border States of America. Nick would be the first to tell you, though, that the stars of this film are the border sheriffs. “At the end of the day, we get the first phone call,” says Val Verde County, Texas Sheriff Joe Martinez. “They don’t call the FBI or the National Park Service. They call the sheriff’s office.”

National Border Patrol Council V.P., Chris Cabrera remarks on the ethical and practical problems with Obama administration's border patrol support and illegal immigration policies.

Before Ebola and ISIS displaced the border crisis in the news cycle, there was talk of putting “troops on the border.” There are troops there already; they’re called border sheriffs, and they’re shamefully undermanned and unsupported. And if anything, the current threat of a pandemic and radical terrorism should refocus our attention on this glaring threat to our national security.

All along the border, deputy sheriffs and Border Patrol agents are responsible for hundreds of square miles per man. Theirs is a noble cause, and they serve with pride. “We’ve got limited resources and limited personnel, but we’re not gonna put up any excuses,” says Capt. Manion Long, of the Doña Ana County, N.M. Sheriff’s Office. “We’re gonna do what it is that we do.”(DemoCast filmed the Hollywood premiere night, panel discussion with filmmaker Luke Livingston , Calif. Assemblyman Tim Donnelly, Tea Party Patriots' Jeannie Beth Martin, Prof. Mark Hager, and cast-members Nick Searcy, and Border Patrol Agent Chris Cabrera).

These first responders have too much at stake to openly call out the federal government that has forsaken them. When you watch The Border States of America, though, you’ll want to do it for them.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu responded to this morning's terror attack in Jerusalem's Har Nof neighborhood saying, "This morning's murderous attack is a direct incitement at the hands of Hamas and (Mahmoud) Abbas, an incitement which has been continuously and irresponsibly ignored by the international community."

Netanyahu, who is due to enter a consultation on the security situation this afternoon, added, "We will respond harshly to the brutal murder of Jews who came to pray and were killed by vile murderers". (Arutz Sheva)
